Education goals
The program objective is to train environmental engineers to obtain up-to-date scientific, ecological, engineering, economic, and management knowledge that will enable them to identify and assess existing and potential environmental threats, prevent or reduce environmental damage, and prepare and manage damage control projects. Graduates will be able to provide complex engineering and scientific design and analytical procedures based on their up-to-date knowledge of informatics with the help of design, modelling, and simulation software. They will also learn to set out and apply adequate technological solutions to prevent environmental pollution and to provide engineering design and managing tasks in the field of waste processing and recycling. Graduates will be able to optimize environmental technologies and environmental impacts. Graduates may continue their studies in the doctoral program.
